EPISODE 5 – OUT TO GET YOU!!!!

29 Jul

Etsy and paypal are evil.

Hey! We made it to FIVE.

Maybe  we are a little calmer this episode. At least so it starts off – until we start talking yarn. And purchases. And the evilness of Etsy & Paypal.

This episode is 1:05 hr. long.
We always love to hear back from you.
🙂

PS: When I say “I have a spindle”, I really mean that my neighbor (and very best friend in the world) Lisa lent me her spindle to try out.
